Toner (Thread 2)

[Gaysha]

^where did you buy it and for how much?

[so_unpredictable]

I never believed the power of toners. But recently found out about micellar water, I've been using it for quite awhile now as makeup remover... sometimes, I fall asleep without washing my face and micellar does wonder and does not break me out. I also read in the earlier pages of this thread that it can be used as toner (as it is also indicated at the back- I'm using the pink one from Maybelline) so I've been using it before I wash my face at night and now before I put on my makeup. I noticed that my face cleared out- no breakouts. My mom also noticed.
Happy to know sis twelvth_goddess vouch for micellar too.


I tried using Etude wonder pore freshner and not sure if it did something on my face. It did not however break me out but I don't think it did my skin good either- or mali ba gamit ko sa kanya? I used it before putting on makeup- now I stopped using it and replaced micellar water so far so good!

I also read here that garnier micellar is good. would try that out too.

I think Maybelline and L'Oreal micellar are the same- same packaging different label lolz. L'Oreal's just pricier. haha. -- it's just sad to think that they are NOT cruelty-free companies.


I've also been wanting to try Thayer's witch hazel toner as mentioned by sis nocturnalnerd as it was the one I saw from Healthy options and not the Dickinson's. any more feedbacks?


I'm also very curious to try ACV as there are quite of people who vouch for it! But when I used it with Aztec healing clay I got big bumps on my face.
For those who used ACV + water, do you apply it at night with cotton and do not wash face afterwards or do you still wash it out after? TIA!

^I'm currently using Ganier Micellar Water (Pink). Does wonders! Sa lahat ng natry ko eto lang talaga ang halos meron na lahat - prevents acne breakout even kahit malapit na period ko, moisturizes and cleanses my face (kahit nga di na ako magmoisturizer ang suple and lambot ng face ko), nawala yung white and blackheads ko, controls my oiliness plus lighten my acne hyperpigmentations kahit yung mga old na. Superb. Kahit di ko na banlawan ok siya. Ang lambot and kinis ng face ko dahil dito. Buti na lang natry ko siya. Highly recommended!

I used garnier micellar water before. I can't use it as a toner aside from the fact that it has surfactants, it leaves a thin film kaya winwash off ko with water. I read somewhere na it's soap diluted kaya di ko sya magamit as a toner. It all boils down to our preferences naman

What I use is the klairs supple preparation toner. Winner sa hydrating factor 'to. Makes my skin soft and glowing. Tho I'm looking for a cheaper alternative.

thanks both for the feedback. Will definitely try Garnier. Kind of nervous though as I'm happy with the Maybelline pink one and almost finished with it.

i'm currently using pixi glow tonic for almost a week na. I don't know if ito reason ng pagkawala ko ng dry cheek ko since sa left lang talaga for months na rin. I'm also using their mud mask, glow peel pads and overnight serum. So far, no break out and very happy smooth na ulit ang left cheeks ko.

Anyone here tried Thayers Alcohol-Free Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner? Ano ang experience nyo sa toner na to? Meron sya sa healthy options, kaso yung sobrang laki lang, been eyeing that product for a while na.

Read about it? Mga how much and ilang ml siya?
As I've mentioned like ko yung Human Heart Nature, no sting but I've noticed wala masyadong dirt sa cotton pad ko. Before I was using Pond's marami nakukuha even though I've washed my face. I'm still on the look out for my HG toner. I've picked up Celeteque next since no alcohol and ok for sensitive skin. Meron din Witch Hazel sa ingredients.

^ What variant did you use sa HHN toner sis? Is it the Balancing Toner?

I LOVE my shiseido white revitalizing softener! Di sya nakakadry ng face. Got it at luxasia great luxury sale. Imagine ang orig price nya is 4k+, nakuha ko lang ng 700 pesos. :-) tester demo pala sya and full size in a sealed container. Hay next time mag hoard na ako.

Choose the Garnier pink variant. Hindi naman malagkit. Ok siya.

[teejiko]

^I'm also using Garnier Pink. Yung Maybelline kasi malagkit parang need ko mag hilamos ulit after gumamit.

kitang kita ang improvement.

Thank you sa nag recommend ng Garnier Micellar water. It saved my skin! My skin got so dry because of Witch Hazel. I stopped WH pero dry pa rin. When I used Garnier micellar water as toner, bumalik na sa dating texture yung skin ko. Yey. I use this as make up cleanser too so yay for double duty products!

I am currently using Dear Klairs supple preparation toner. Para palang serum ang consistency nito pero parang hiyang naman ang skin ko. I use this before applying serum. Based on reviews it prepares your skin for the products you will be using.
